Dear Daylight Savings Time,

I really enjoy that you’ve brought us an extra hour of daylight.  I love summer evenings that last until 9pm.  I love that the crispness of morning lasts for a bit longer.  What I’d appreciate is if you could just never switch back in the fall.  You see, all this back and forth nonsense creates quite a sleep issue for those of us with children.  Liam just doesn’t seem to understand that he still has to take a nap that begins between 1 and 1:30.  He doesn’t seem to understand that 7:45 is still a far better bedtime for his Mama and Daddy than 8:45.  I tell him, but nothing’s getting through.  As a result, he’s decided that it would be best to not take a nap.  This is especially cruel after you already took an hour of sleep from us on Saturday night.  I’m really tired and need a nap of my own, so I’d appreciate any help you could give me with this issue.

Thanks so much,

Shannon
